Please have a seat. I'm sorry I'm late |
|
I know how long you've had to wait |
|
I did not forget your documents |
|
No time to waste, why not begin? |
|
Here's how it works, I've got these faces |
|
You give them names and I won't deport you |
|
Make sure you face my tape recorder |
|
Make no mistake, this fountain pen |
|
Could put you on a plane by ten |
|
And by the way, your next of kin |
|
I know which house she's hiding in |
|
So now that you know whose skin you're saving |
|
In this photograph, who's this one waving? |
|
I think you know, so speak up, amigo |
|
It says here that by trade you were a fisherman |
|
Well I'll bet you Indians can really reel them in |
|
And if you get the chance |
|
You should try to get up to Lake Michigan |
|
Well maybe, but then again.... |
|
Where were we then? Is he your friend? |
|
Well I recommend that you look again |
|
Where does he stay? What is his name? |
|
There is no shame. He'd do the same |
|
So what do you say? I don't have all day |
|
It's up to you. Which will it be |
|
Good citizen or poor campesino? |
|
My dad used to rent us this place in Ontario |
|
He showed us how to cast the line and tie the flies |
|
He used to say that God rewards us for letting the small ones go |
|
Well maybe, but I don't know |
|
Anyway, it's easy to bite. You just take the bait |
|
You can't snap the line |
|
Don't fight the hook |
|
Hurts less if you don't try to dive |
|
Senor, as you know I was a fisherman |
|
And how full the nets came in |
|
We hauled them up by hand |
|
But when we fled, I left them just out past the coral reefs |
|
They're waiting there for me |
|
Running deep |
